Designing Women S4 E20 Extra Sugar - Prohibition

Daddy Jones and his moonshine made an appearance in this week’s episode, so we’re taking that as a perfectly adequate excuse to finally talk about prohibition and the, er, uh, precarious relationship we’ve had with alcohol here in the South. 

Join us as we discuss what prohibition was (and what it wasn’t), what it did (and what it didn’t), and the ripple effects we still see to this day. 

It’s a complicated history, y’all, so it’s impossible to cover it all in one fell swoop. We’ll be looking for future opportunities to dig into different angles, including the specific history of moonshine (‘cause it has one all its own!).
